It's 1998 and Alexandra had come to California to be closer to her daughter and start a new life completely different than the one she'd left behind. Finding herself smack in the middle of L.A.'s decadent music scene certainly wasn't part of the plan, but neither was falling for rock's heir apparent Dominic Wild.

Overdue - A Rockstar Romance by ItsTheQuietGirls

After a disastrous end to their last tour, Elliot Hawk, lead singer of True Outlaws - a British pop rock band taking the world by storm - is determined to keep the new album release squeaky clean. However, he isn't counting on Phoebe, a shy librarian with a past of her own, catching his eye. She isn't interested in a quick fling with a smooth talking rockstar, but before she knows it, their two worlds collide. They say life can change in a moment, Phoebe and Elliott are about to find out just how true that is. But with backstabbing backing dancers, pressure from the press and a mysterious stranger with a real vendetta, will they be able to find that long overdue happily ever after, or will our star crossed lovers crash and burn in the spotlight? (This is a standalone book, slowburn romance with a happy ending guaranteed. Some mature themes and triggers, including drinking and addiction) ----- "I'm not one of your fan girls." I snapped, a little offended, "I haven't even heard any of your music." "I'm hurt love. After I just serenaded you too." I huffed, "I wouldn't call that serenaded, I'm pretty sure it was harassment."

Love Me Back to Life by Moondustglitter

"Small world," Jon said, his eyes crinkling faintly. "Yeah." Ella's tone was flat. But there was something about the way he looked at her, just like he'd noticed something under the surface. It softened her voice despite herself. "Weird coincidence." Jon smirked. "Weird? Or fate?" Ella rolled her eyes, but the corner of her mouth twitched. "Definitely weird." When Ella meets Jon, she's drowning in a past she can't escape. He's everything she shouldn't want: charismatic, spontaneous - married. But in his presence, she feels alive, if only for a moment. Please note: This story explores mature emotional terrain. It includes scenes of intimacy, trauma recovery, and past violence (including PTSD). If those themes are not for you, please take care. If you're still with us-welcome. You're in good company. 💛

Wrecked and Wild by vn_wrts_

A singer with a bad reputation. A basketball star with everything to lose. One wild night in Vegas that changes everything. She's the music industry's most infamous troublemaker-sassy, scandalous, and untouchable. He's the king of the court and a single dad, more worried about his teenage son than tabloid drama. They couldn't be more different, and they definitely don't belong together. But when a drunken night in Vegas ends with "I do," their lives turn into a whirlwind of paparazzi, fiery arguments, and sparks they can't ignore. Forced to face the chaos they've created, they'll discover that the line between love and hate is dangerously thin-and sometimes, wrecked and wild is the only way to live.

Cacophony by DivergentlyYours

Sydney didn't have much, but that was fine with her. She didn't need much. Growing up on the Washington coast in a lonely beach town, working quietly behind the scenes was what she was good at. Living on the beach was much less glamorous than most people imagine. Her home was a beat up old Winnebago that she had shared with her father until he passed. Her father had been a detached parent. He loved his daughter of course, but he was by no means an affectionate man. She had grown up fending for herself, working backstage at a bar that hosted live bands using a fake ID. After the death of her father she saw an ad for a guitar technician for a local Seattle band. A love of rock and roll had been the one thing that her and her dad had in common. Selling everything that she didn't need she packed up her pickup truck and travelled north to the city, leaving the sleepy town in her rear view mirror. She didn't expect to embark on what would become the adventure of a lifetime. For someone who had hardly left the town she grew up in, the opportunity to get paid to travel the country and listen to great music was a dream come true. The band became her family, and life on the road was a perfect fit for her. Chris Cornell instantly became Sydney's best friend in the whole world. They were in love, that was plain as day to anyone who paid attention. Yet, sometimes love isn't as simple as it should be. Sometimes, love hurts. Warning: This book covers potentially triggering subjects such as depression, suicidal ideation, domestic abuse, sexual assault, poverty and drug use. These are issues that many of us have faced and are very real. If you or a loved one is experiencing suicidal thoughts or abuse in a relationship, please reach out and find help.
